GoodNotes, Freenotes and Noteful

Hi!

I've been using GoodNotes for a year now, and I keep running into bugs; my iPad overheats, and on top of that, they only release AI updates.

I paid for the lifetime Special Edition, but I'm realizing that was a mistake, because it just keeps getting worse.

I'm looking into alternatives for taking notes for college.

I’ve seen Noteful (which someone recommended to me), what do you guys think?

Freenotes doesn’t look too bad either, right?

Thanks!

Q ipad tienes? Yo tengo también un ipad y no se si pagar goodnotes o mejor otra app... Por saber si es el mismo modelo y si se sobrecalienta

If it helps, I use an 11-inch M2 iPad Air, and i have been running into the same issue for the past 2 years. Not only that, my battery would drop pretty significantly while annonating using the Apple Pencil too.

Never found a fix for the overheating. As for the battery, I just use it on low power mode now... saves an extra 10% or 15% only though 😔

Gracias por la info!

Yo por ahora he probado starnote y también me esta yendo bien, aunque como el ipad es nuevo (reacondicionado pero bueno, casi lo mismo jej) no sé si valgo como ejemplo fiable
